It's all a bit like Rentaghost really, just with a man with an entry wound on his forehead instead of a jester, witch and pantomime horse. To gain access to FEARSs more stompy arsenal, however, Fettel needs a host - since mech combat is making a substantial return to the game, and these bots don't come with ethereal ghost controls.
We're injecting that into this game: you have to play defensively, you have to play strategically. Whereas in FEAR 2 the mechs closed you off from the world, cocooning you in heavy armour and computer read-outs, those in FEAR 3 are designed for more elegant combat than the simple gut-drilling and constant rockets of times past.
The mechs are slightly smaller for a start, slightly reminiscent of ED in Robocop but probably better equipped when it comes to stairs, and come with a shield that you can activate when under heavier barrages of enemy fire. Their moment of glory atop the broken bridge comes in a dual-pronged assault down the motorway - with one brother taking one branch of the motorway, and the other taking the parallel route against what would once have been oncoming traffic. Helicopters are taken out, men in power-suits taking aim with rockets are disposed of, and very little tarmac goes without being either scorched or bullet-ridden.
The fact that Day 1 were responsible for the early MechAssault games that heralded the Xbox's arrival into online gaming does not go unnoticed here. Then, at the moment of victory over Armacham a fresh onslaught causes the bridge to tumble.
It's all rather spectacular, apart from Fettel coining out with the gag, "If this is part of your plan, I'd say this is going quite swimmingly!
FEAR 3 then: silly name, different developer, interesting prospect. The concept of competitive co-op isn't one that gels with the way FEAR plays, but seeing as so many of the co-op mechanics and point scoring systems that Day 1 hope will bring in an edge of friendly rivalry are yet to be disclosed, we'll withhold judgement.
The action, however, looks more than decent - a far cry from the days of the rubbish non-Monolith FEAR expansions like Extraction Point and Perseus Mandate that your brain habitually flickers towards when considering such a concept. Above all though, the way that the game's run-time follows the build up to the birth of Alma's new and nightmarish offspring is a superb touch.
As for exactly what beast is clawing its way out of that accursed womb, who can say? Someone should inform social services in any case. Browse games Game Portals.
